In 2000 Al Gore lost his home state of Tennessee because blacks didn't show up. If he wins Tennessee, Florida wouldn't have mattered. Kerry lost Ohio in 2004, same reason. Hillary lost PA and Michigan for the same reason. When it's close, they often swing it one way or another Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Either put a black person up for election, or just tell them you want to increase government and that you want to give things away to them for doing nothing. Then move on to the rest of the population. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If you are a politician who wants to be elected, don't ever say, "we as a government will empower you as US citizens to put your prosperity into your own hands. You can make a difference in your own life if you work for it." At least that is how the left thinks about getting votes. Tell the people they are not fit to make judgments on their own lives and that they need the gubment to tell them what to think and do. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The only reason the right would put up a black candidate is because he would be qualified to be president. Therefore, he wouldn't be offering up freebies and large government. And therefore, black voters wouldn't like him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You don't see blacks as your equals, read your comments if you disagree. Blacks vote for blacks. It's proven. Check out the black voter turnout for obama years and the black voter % drop in 2016. And reparations are stupid. Smart white people are smart by definition. Stupid white people usually become democrats. See MDC. And there are smart black people and stupid black people. Look at the % of blacks in the US and the % of how many of them are in prison. Look at how many black people are killing each other in Chicago. Go obama!! Nice work. Obama was one of the stupid black people. In fact, treasonous and stupid. Smart black people are smart by definition and they don't vote for race or sexual orientation or freebies. They work for a living and take care of themselves without the need for the government to take care of them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think the claim is they vote democratic, not by race. And they do vote for democrats, at a huge clip. But I would bet given the choice between a black democrat and a white one, they would vote for the black candidate.

There is absolutely no motivation for either political party to do much of anything for them beyond the bare minimum. Do not complain that politicians do more for white people, because it is with them that elections are won or lost. You must divide your vote for those in charge to take notice.

You don't see blacks as your equals, read your comments if you disagree. What would reparations accomplish? Reparations are paid out, then what? Are we even steven? Does it make the AA community whole again? Will the AA community all of a sudden rise up and over come the years of systemic racism at the hands of the dems? Will the middle class all of a sudden explode with successful AAs? Hell no, because those once dependent on the dems for handouts will start voting on real issues that affect them which will cost the dems votes. So, seriously, whats the point of reparations? The fact is, reparations are just another emotional bone that Dems wanna throw at AAs. The point is to keep them thinking that they are incapable of success and that handouts from the gov is the only way to survive. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
